I want everyone to know how wonderful my trees are. They are unbelievable, great looking, and for the first time in three years of growth they ALL have fruit. Lime tree, lemon tree, and orange tree, I winterize them in my garage and in early spring I put them in the kitchen with a southern sunshine. Against my wife's wishes. But she let me anyway. The kitchen smelled wonderful with the flowers blooming. Can't help but show everyone who visits my beautiful Citrus farm. Thanks for the wonderful trees. I think I am a citrus farmer now. True they are small when you get them. But the get bigger and better with a little care. Thanks, Willie T. Davis

Fun to watch grow
Reviewed By: Amy (Madrid, Ia)
I bought these trees about a year ago. My lemon tree died pretty quickly, but Gurney's replaced it with no questions. I now have about a dozen limes and the orange tree is flourishing, though no oranges or blooms. The foilage on these trees is beautiful and my children love to watch them grow. They are easy to take care of and fun to have on the patio in the summer. I did buy them more for decor than to use the fruit, that will just be a bonus. Great fun to grow!

Dwarf Citrus Collection
Reviewed By: Sara (Central, Arkansas)
The trees are much smaller than I anticipated and looked more like vegetable starter plants than trees. They were also wind worn with cracked leaves and torn leaves. Be prepared to wait for growth as they are very small and you may not have fruit for quite some time much less blooms. If they would tell you they are about 4-5 inches tall, then I feel you would know what to expect vs. your expectation of what is shown in the picture.
